What does the term 'muzzle' refer to on a firearm?

  1. The part that holds the bullets

  2. The end of the barrel where the bullet exits

  3. The safety mechanism

  4. The sight on top of the barrel

The correct answer is: The end of the barrel where the bullet exits

The term 'muzzle' on a firearm refers to the end of the barrel where the bullet exits. This is an essential part of a firearm as it is where the projectile leaves the gun and is directed towards the target. It is important for firearm users to be familiar with the different parts of a firearm for safe and effective use. The other options are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the term 'muzzle'.
